CHAP. V.
1 The Canaanites are afraid of the Israelites. 2 Circumcision is
commanded the second time. 10 The Pa&esset;eouer is kept. 12
Manna ceaseth. 13 The Angel appeareth vnto Ioshua.
1 Nowe when all the Kings of the note Amorites,
which were beyond Iorden Westward, and
all the Kinges of the Canaanites which were by
the Sea, heard that the Lord had dried vp the waters
of Iorden before the children of Israel vntill
they were gone ouer, their heart fainted: & there
was no courage in them any more because of the
children of Israel.
2 ¶2; That same time the Lord said vnto Ioshua,
note Make thee sharpe kniues, note and returne, and
circumcise the sonnes of Israel the second time.
3 Then Ioshua made him sharpe kniues & circumcised
the sonnes of Israel in note the hill of the
foreskinnes.
4 And this is the cause why Ioshua circumcised
all the people, euen the males that came out
of Egypt, because all the men of warre were dead
in the wildernesse by the way after they came out
of Egypt.
5 For all the people that came out were circumcised:
but all the people that were borne in
the wildernes by the way after they came out of
Egypt, were note not circumcised.
6 For the children of Israel walked fourtie
yeres in the wildernes, till all the people of the
men of warre that came out of Egypt were consumed,
because they obeyed not the voyce of the
Lord: vnto whome the Lord sware, that he would
not shewe them the lande, note which the Lorde had
sworne vnto their fathers, that he would giue vs,
euen a land that floweth with milke and hony.
7 So their sonnes whome he raysed vp in their
steade, Ioshua circumcised: for they were vncircumcised,
because they circumcised them not by
the way.
8 And when they had made an ende of circumcising
al the people, they abode in the places
in the campe till they note were whole.
9 After, the Lord said vnto Ioshua, This day I
haue taken away the note shame of Egypt from you:
wherefore he called the name of that place Gilgal,
vnto this day.
10 ¶2; So the children of Israel abode in Gilgal,
and kept þe; feast of the Passeouer the fourteenth
day of the moneth at euen in þe; plaine of Iericho.
11 And they did eat of the corne of the land,
on the morow after the Passeouer, vnleauened
breade, and parched corne in the same day.
12 And the MAN ceased on the morowe after
they had eaten of the corne of the land, neither
had the children of Israel MAN any more,
but did eate of the fruite of the land of Canaan
that yeere.
13 ¶2; And when Ioshua was by Iericho, he lift
vp his eyes and looked: and behold, there stood a
note man against him, hauing a sword drawen in his
hand: and Ioshua went vnto him, and said vnto
him, Art thou on our side, or on our aduersaries?
14 And he said, Nay, but as a captaine of the
host of the Lorde am I nowe come: then Ioshua
fel on his face to the earth, and note did worship, &
saide vnto him, What sayth my Lorde vnto his
seruant?
15 And the captaine of þe; Lords host said vnto
Ioshua, note Loose thy shoe of thy foote: for þe; place
wheron thou standest, is holy: and Ioshua did so.
